>Description:

	I blew away my /modules (and /modules.old) directory and
	then did a make installkernel. The result was a file where
	/modules should have been.

>How-To-Repeat:

	rm -fr /modules*
	cd /usr/src
	make installkernel KERNCONF=yourkernel

>Fix:

	For a workaround, just don't blow away /modules (delete
	its contents instead) or, having done so, mkdir /modules
	before doing the make installkernel.
